H2-Roadmap for Germany

Common Commitment for Commercialization of Fuel Cell Vehicles until 2015

Letter of Understanding signed in Sept. 2009 for commercialization of fuel cell vehicles until 2015

• The Letter of Understanding was signed by all relevant automotive manufacturers, which are engaged in the development of fuel cell technology.

• From 2015 onwards a quite significant number of fuel cell vehicles could be commercialized. This number is aimed at a few hundred thousand vehicles over life cycle on a worldwide basis.

• In order to ensure a successful market introduction of fuel cell vehicles, this market has to be aligned with the build-up of the necessary hydrogen infrastructure by 2015.

• The network should be built-up from metropolitan areas via corridors into area-wide coverage.

A Way Forward: The H2-Mobility Initiative

• A strong Partnership of Motivated Stakeholders

• Germany as a Pilot Market for Europe

• Additional Partners Welcome

Leading industrial companies to agree upon a built up plan for a nationwide infrastructure

Significant expansion of hydrogen fuelling stations network in key regions by the end of 2011

Important milestone on the way to emission-free mobility

Costs for a Hydrogen Road

Transport System in 6

European Countries

For a fully functioning hydrogen

road transport system for a 2035,

the HyWays project

[www.hyways.de] assumed a

scenario covering 6 European

countries for which could be shown

that more than 60% of the total

investment costs have to be

brought up for the conventional

part of the vehicle.

About 20% are for the H2-specific

onboard part of the vehicle (e.g.

FC and storage).

About 20% are for the H2

production, transport,

distribution and dispensing.

H2 infrastructure versus

H2 vehicle investments

Launch of gas-driven fuel cell heating appliance to be prepared

Demonstrate technical maturity, support further improvements to ensure marketable products

Develop supply chains by winning binding orders for large numbers

Enhance product profile on the market

Continue work on concepts for supply structure integration

Support training / further training of market partners

Validate requirements against customers and the market

Residential fuel cell heating appliances

may be used in single- and multi-family homes;

may replace existing heating systems;

are very energy-saving and have low emissions.

Preconditions for operation are

a minimum heat requirement of the building

(space heating, hot water production);

connection to natural gas and power grids.figure: www.initiative-brennstoffzelle.de

The future belongs to him

- Who is the first to pack solar power in the tank

- Who is the first to overtake with hydrogen

- Who is the first to move ahead - CO2 -free

Thank you very much

for your attention!

EHA: General Assembly , June 21th 2010

• The German Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Association (DWV)

promotes and prepares the general introduction of hydrogen

as an energy carrier and of fuel cells as efficient energy

conversion technology into the market.

• DWV brings the interested parties (companies, institutes,

private persons) together, keeps them informed, informs the

general public and the deciders in economy and politics and

advises the process of regulation and standardisation.

• DWV works in close cooperation with the European Hydrogen

Association and other national partner organisations all over

the world.

• In a nutshell: DWV is the German hydrogen and fuel cell

lobby.
